A Systemic View of Transformational Leadership

By Russell L. Ackoff

Systemic Practice and Action Research, (1998), 11(1), 23-36

What do systems thinkers think about leadership? Russell Ackoff provides his response, and goes further to describe "transformational" leadership. Important distinctions are drawn between the concepts of leadership and transformation, efficiency and effectiveness, growth and development. Ackoff discusses four types of systems and emphasizes that leaders must understand the particular nature of their system in order to achieve transformation.

Algunas definiciones de "Liderizar":

(LEAD 1) Contribución de Charles François: "The property of a regulator able to evaluate the future behavior of the system and to activate the necessary corrective action. Such ability depends of the data available to the regulator (about the system itself and about its possible interactions with its environment), in accordance with the CONANT – ASHBY principle that a good regulator must include a reliable model of the system it regulates. The lead should compensate the normal lag in a feedback loop whose corrective action merely follows the registered difference between the prescribed and the observed state of the regulated process in the system. Such lagging feedback may be unable to correct divergences in due time and may even help throwing the process or system out of its stability range".

(LIDERAZGO) Traducción por Charles François: "La propiedad de un regulador capaz de evaluar el comportamiento futuro del sistema para activar las medidas correctivas necesarias. Esta capacidad depende de los datos disponibles para el regulador (sobre el propio sistema y sobre sus posibles interacciones con su entorno), de conformidad con el principio de ASHBY-CONANT por el cual un buen regulador debe incluir un modelo fiable del sistema que regula. El liderazgo debe compensar el desfase normal en un bucle de realimentación cuya acción correctiva meramente sigue la diferencia registrada entre el estado prescripto y el estado observado del proceso regulado en el sistema. Tal retroalimentación demorada puede ser incapaz de corregir las divergencias en su debido tiempo, e incluso ayudar a lanzar al proceso o al sistema fuera de su rango de estabilidad". (Charles François, International Encyclopedia of Systems and Cybernetics )
